Rangitāne

Tini whetū ki te rangi, ko Rangitāne ki te whenua. Thats all. 


Ngāpuhi 

You’re like the Dothraki, there’s a bagillion of yous and you’re highkey scary lol.


Ngāti Porou 

You cannot deny that Paikea is THE ULTIMATE BANGA.


Ngāti Kahungunu 

Kahungunu had 8 wives, maybe that’s why they play up. 


Ngāti Toa 

I was taught if I don’t have anything nice to say don’t say it.


Kāi Tahu 

If you steal another whale, I’ll call 911.

Taranaki 

Aroz to you all because every person that I have met that hails Taranaki is actually really nice.


Te Arawa
